I don't mean ROI. For some people, especially international students, financing a top tier MBA may be near impossible.

Well then I agree with you and to be frank, the post is a first in the series of 3 posts that I've planned to write on the topic. I have compiled a list of 9 criteria and 'Financing an MBA' aspect in terms of availability of 'Co-signor Free Loans' is one of them. I could not write a detailed note for all 9 criteria at one go due to lack of sufficient time and hence decided to complete it in 3 posts. Hope you understand. I will post the other 2 very shortly. Thanks for going through the post and your feedback. You may want to join the site to stay updated. Thanks and Stay Connected...we can learn a lot mutually.

Definitely think that would be a good topic to cover more in depth. Look forward to seeing more from you!
